In a world which demands quicker decisions and faster action. One’s ability to arrive at data driven decision coupled with relevant historic wisdom becomes a key to success for every organization.

However, when we contextualize to IT operations, we see IT systems are constantly generating vast quantities of data. Buried within it all is the insight you need to improve efficiency, identify problems, enhance performance and make better decisions, but how can you extract the critical insight from all the noise.

IT Operations Analytics (ITOA) automates the monitoring of systems to gather important data for analysis, allowing one to understand and predict potential issues. It provides easy search and real-time visualization tools that let one to get to grips with the picture at macro and micro-levels. By automating the correlation of data sources,

What is ITOA?

In short ITOA is combination of ITSM coupled with bigdata capability to improve & enhance operational efficiency

Why ITOA?

ITOA makes analysis faster more straightforward and isolation of root causes quicker. Besides the incident trend analysis and performance reporting that has already been going on, In-depth analytics of the IT operations that could be explored include:

Service impact analysis- after a new service has been introduced or a change has been affected.

Correlating service desk contact methods to incident type and understand how best to encourage and increase self-service adoption

Demand management and patterns of business activities - pick time for resource availability and maximization.

Customer relation management: can analyze based on individual or departmental levels

Knowledge management on task resolution- in case of similar request, suggest possible solutions, while improving the IT knowledge base and self-help facility, and consequently reducing service desk workload.

Service portfolio and catalogue management- the new services to introduce and the services to retire

Understanding how the IT ecosystem works to identify which service level targets can’t be (consistently) met, or conversely those that can never fail and are as such useless as targets.

Using predictive analysis in understanding the likelihood of future outcomes based on historical data.

Using ITSM data from various tool modules to create a real-world service taxonomy. This could be as part of a larger service portfolio management initiative.

How is it done?

The data points from various elements of IT operations in various forms like structured unstructured are collated and correlation algorithms are run based on the requirements and intelligence needed. The data visualization tools further represent the intelligence in predefined format and graphs.

In short IT operation analytics when implemented properly can be single source of truth for all the IT operations related facts, incidents, problems, capacity planning predictive analysis and self-healing ca pabilities.
